Untitled is a 1916 graphite by Otto Dix, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows a rough, jagged figure hunched over, with sharp lines and dark shadows. The body looks twisted, almost broken, and there’s a small, spiky insect crawling near the bottom left. The background is a mix of blurry shapes and heavy strokes, giving it a chaotic feel. The artist used quick, uneven pencil strokes to create a sense of unease. The figure’s face is barely there—just a few dark marks where eyes might be. If you like this style, check out more by Otto Dix.
Wilhelm Heinrich Otto Dix was a German painter and printmaker, noted for his ruthless and harshly realistic depictions of German society during the Weimar Republic and the brutality of war.
